Between 1993-1996 I was a young boy obsessed with Superboy. I seriously wanted to be Superboy. When the 1996 annual came out and I didn't have it yet, I was so excited I couldn't even sit still if I even started to think about it. I even drew my own Superboy comics in 1996, but by the end of that year I was hitting puberty and Superboy took a back seat.
I got into Superman with his death in the 90s, and with Reign of the Supermen, he was a character I fell in love with immediately. His attitude, and even his dated costume were something I liked a lot. Sadly, I fell away from Superman and eventually comic books for years (finding a source was one reason.) But Superboy was the reason I came back into comics. Althought it was "too late" at the time (2007,) reading about him, his death, and the effects brought me back.
@@cake6851 Damn it's almost like being told you're simultaneously a clone of The World's worst villain and The World's greatest hero would give you a little bit of angst.
Wow, I see Superman and Nightwing aren't the only ones who can rock a mullet. Superboy is one of my all time favorite titans, I say the 2000s were the best moments for Superboy even though he was dead for a period of time
I only recently started watching this channel but its already one of my favourites. I love the way Faust explains things, its easy to understand and you still get alot of info. Cant wait for the next episode of this!
I love the way he looks and his hip attitude. It's like a millienial fashion blogger only in the early 90s. He just looks good. Which is strange for the mullettastic 90s. You can feel them trying to 90s him up more and more but he somehow resists it. They should use a version on that hair and glasses in a new outfit. The jeans and tshirt are just lame.
I was 13 during the Death or Superman, so I was their target audience and really dug S-Boy. Especially loved World's Finest Three with Tim Drake and it's Tom Grummet art. Later, when Teen Titans was relaunched I was an adult and appreciated how they matured the character.
...And how is Cadmus being portrayed as "good guys" like wearing your neighbor's underwear exactly?! 😂😂😂 Man, I love '90's Superboy... I thought he was so cool; especially how his powers worked. During Marvel vs. DC, when he fought Spider-Man, I thought it was SUPER appropriate... Since they were both clones. This video is about to send me on a Google search adventure... Because I have ZERO idea how/why he changed from a leather jacket wearing bad boy to a black t-shirt wearing boyscout. That makes sense that after absorbing the yellow sun for some time, that he would fully get kryptonian powers... However... I still like his original powers. So, thanks for that info! I'll like & subscribe 😎
Hey Faust! I was recently going thru my dad's old comics, and I found an old Teen Titans issue, and I noticed a character named Mal, and I also noticed him in Young Justice. Who is he? Can you make a video about him?
he has articles on Wikipedia and various DC wikis, that will get you started until Faust makes a vid. I think his most full portrayal was on the show, sadly he was not developed much in the comics
I love Young Justice! even if I've only read the first comics, I can say it's the best group of young heroes because they ARE young. Just look at Impulse! he's a cute kid. and Secret! I love the cartoon, yes, but sorry, my first love will always be the better.
HI. Long time fan but I keep quite. I noticed on a lot of your videos you state your desire to write for different characters. Have you ever written anything for your fans? I am thinking with your passion for comics and your knowledge of comic history you would be great at it.
I thought Super Boy was so cool in the 90's!!! I loved the way his powers work(Super original 😎), I loved his costume, his attitude, the whole death of Superman comics & that he was in Marvel vs. D.C.!!! I would of thought it was SUPER cool that he fought Spider-Man's clone Ben Reilly(spellcheck)the Scarlett Spider if I'd of known... Because they were both clones... Idk I was too young so I totally missed that. It would have made more since because I was confused as to why they paired them up. ANYWAY... I did not like boring black T-shirt & blue jeans, jock, Super Boy. He just paled in comparison to the rad leather jacket & sun glasses wearing Super Boy of the 90's. IMHO
ItsSuperEffective also could there be a possibility of another weekly pull collab I have to ask if you could have any superpower what would it be then I'm done with my questions

The first superboy comic was the first comic I ever read! Awesome
Am I the only one that actually likes 90's Superboy?
Edit: Apparently I'm not.
Watch till the end, I actually say that this is one of my favourite eras for Superboy.
Grey Scott 90s Superboy is an national treasure
Same here I love Superboy from the 90's too.
Karl Kesel Superboy was probably his best era.
no
I love his jacket it's so damm cool.
His 90s costume is so freaking cool so how come he starting wearing the t shirt and jeans ?
i liked the new 52 costume
Because he was a little angsty under geoff johns.
@@cake6851 Damn it's almost like being told you're simultaneously a clone of The World's worst villain and The World's greatest hero would give you a little bit of angst.
@@treyhardy6586 yeah but his character was changed
I'm in love with the 90s costume
Thank you for so much for doing this video! Superboy was the first comic book I read. I collected the first 50 issues plus Superboy and the Ravers.
Wow, I see Superman and Nightwing aren't the only ones who can rock a mullet. Superboy is one of my all time favorite titans, I say the 2000s were the best moments for Superboy even though he was dead for a period of time
That was long hair for Superman, not a mullet.
i like superboy aka conner kent he's such a cool character
I only recently started watching this channel but its already one of my favourites. I love the way Faust explains things, its easy to understand and you still get alot of info. Cant wait for the next episode of this!
MY FAVE CHARACTER! I used to religiously buy the Superboy and Knockout comics! Thank you for this vid.

I'm the most hugest Superman fan ever but I am even more of a fan of Superboy
Faust, I really dug this take on Superboy! I have all the issues of his solo title!
Aw I enjoyed this video so much. I'll Hate waiting for part 2.
So glad someone finallyyyyyy did a history of superboy
I was 13 during the Death or Superman, so I was their target audience and really dug S-Boy. Especially loved World's Finest Three with Tim Drake and it's Tom Grummet art. Later, when Teen Titans was relaunched I was an adult and appreciated how they matured the character.
I was waiting for this history so bad
cant wait for part 2, great video!
nice to see you back on the comics love your vids😊
great video as always brings back good memories
Man... I missed Kon!The whole Graduation Day / Teen Titans Storyline is Superboy in his prime.

I can't believe I left this in my watch later for so long
I LOVE SUPERBOY his my favorite character of all time and I want him to return to already
I even want to do a 90s Superboy cosplay
Superboy is a very interesting character, I really hope I see him on DC rebirth.
i like his costume besides his leather jacket and glasses
Faust....u a genius bro!!!
90s Superboy is finally coming back to rebirth
Hey Faust after you finish your superboy videos can you do mon el since he is now on supergirl
Please finish this series!
Wow u got me hooked with the inevitable death thing
...And how is Cadmus being portrayed as "good guys" like wearing your neighbor's underwear exactly?! 😂😂😂
Man, I love '90's Superboy... I thought he was so cool; especially how his powers worked.

Would love a video on Lilith ( Omen ) I think she is just awesome!!! and I love how they're incorporating her in Titans now
Hey Faust! I was recently going thru my dad's old comics, and I found an old Teen Titans issue, and I noticed a character named Mal, and I also noticed him in Young Justice. Who is he? Can you make a video about him?
King Yak Mal Duncan? If so he's a pretty cool dude
he has articles on Wikipedia and various DC wikis, that will get you started until Faust makes a vid. I think his most full portrayal was on the show, sadly he was not developed much in the comics
He is the Herald I believe
Hey it's super effective will you ever make a video answering question about heros?
AAA++++ video very entertaining please keep this up.
knew he hated being called super boy didn't knoe the Hawaii part...
Awesome, superboy fix
i always wanted to know this superboys orgin and i have to say like it.
i love your videos
I love Young Justice! even if I've only read the first comics, I can say it's the best group of young heroes because they ARE young. Just look at Impulse! he's a cute kid. and Secret! I love the cartoon, yes, but sorry, my first love will always be the better.
waiting for part three faust
Have you done a history on Mary Marvel? If you haven't, can you do one please
How did the character Champion tie into the whole Cadmus clone deal? Did zero hour have any effect on Superboy?
I think the Superboy that spun out of the Death of Superman was based on Zenith from 2000AD (Grant Morrison, Steve Yeowell).
You should consider doing a Remy LeBeau -Gambit video
still waiting on part 2
I was a huge fan of Conner. I felt he was at his best as part of the teen titans.
Hey, will you be talking about or mentioning superboy's relationship with wondergirl in part 2?
you should do a video for the begginer people that are stating to read comics
superrr good video
I love the old red blue and the new 52 tron suits!! The t shirt n jeans look was... Garbage though.
Conner Kent/ Kon-El aka Superboy is fucking awesome!!!
nooooo I need the next part now lol
is there any news of him returning in rebirth?
honestly anything with a speedster is pretty sweet in my book.
Could you do an origin story of Giganta
was going to give a thumbs up but i had to leave it on the triple 6
where is the resst of this series?
this knockout sound like the teen tians cartoon version of terra. and who are secret six
Did you do a Golden Age and Silver Age superboy. Please explain the difference. Was that Superboy a pre crisis character.
Why did superboy have facial hair Sometimes despite being 16 years old ?
I hated this stubble, damn 😬 Luckily there's no facial hair in Post Rebirth
HI. Long time fan but I keep quite. I noticed on a lot of your videos you state your desire to write for different characters. Have you ever written anything for your fans? I am thinking with your passion for comics and your knowledge of comic history you would be great at it.
Can you do a video on Mystique?
Hey Faust have you done Psylocke
Can you talk about gentlemen ghost's history in a video, for a project i'm doing it would help from an expert like you
plz do eradicator
are you going to continue the batman telltale
i love you 😭😭😭
Who is the super family
90s superboy is cool
Was there a precrisis superboy? I always thought there was one.
the first Superboy is Clark Kent himself as a boy (duh) before he became Superman.
is he gonna talk all the way to the new superboy in rebirth
I thought Super Boy was so cool in the 90's!!!
I loved the way his powers work(Super original 😎), I loved his costume, his attitude, the whole death of Superman comics & that he was in Marvel vs. D.C.!!!
I would of thought it was SUPER cool that he fought Spider-Man's clone Ben Reilly(spellcheck)the Scarlett Spider if I'd of known... Because they were both clones... Idk I was too young so I totally missed that. It would have made more since because I was confused as to why they paired them up.
ANYWAY...
I did not like boring black T-shirt & blue jeans, jock, Super Boy. He just paled in comparison to the rad leather jacket & sun glasses wearing Super Boy of the 90's.
IMHO
When are you going to patriot from young avengers
HES COMING BACK FOR REBIRTH
Ok I need someone to explain too me the two superboys
Can you please do a history of cat woman!
what about doing grifter/cole cash
6:45 the discomfort
just to confirm, superboy and monel are 2 different people right?
yep. Monel is a time- displaced daxamite(which is an off-shoot from the main kryptonian blood line
Hey. Perfect ending, ain't it?
Superboy Prime.
Superboy died when young justice ended.
DazzoD123 Huh?
I like the idea of a monster of the week comic kinda sick of marvel and DC's over arching stories one after another
Wait is that Gwenpool in the thumbnail
He never got a mom.
More reasons that I like the superboy from young justice. far more intresting and believable.
90s superboy is good too. You know nothing.
it's been over a month
yeah about to pass a month
I like to think if they succeeded in creating a army of Match-Superboys it would be called the Matchbox...... BA DUMB TISS
notification squad
There's a new info about the resurrexion generation X at marvel.com
i want dc to bring young justice back
Faust how old are you
guess with replies I'm guessing 20-30
I don't give out my specific age due to my belief system. I'm in my mid 20s.
ItsSuperEffective okay I respect that thanks for replying so quickly most youtuber wouldn't
ItsSuperEffective what is your belief system??
ItsSuperEffective wearing your neighbors underwear lol
ItsSuperEffective also could there be a possibility of another weekly pull collab
I have to ask if you could have any superpower what would it be then I'm done with my questions
NOTE throw out all young justice superboy stuff
pls do catwoman
I really don't like the redesign for him. He stopped looking like a bad boyi into an angsty looking jock.
And his relationship don't last long😒
a month
